Quite a small park and unfortunately right on a busy main road. But ok for the little evening stroll. From 08/01 the heather sheep are brought in here every day at 5:00 p.m.

The magic of the heath on the outskirts of the city

Experience the special charm of this region: a typical heath area with a dense juniper stand and a real sheepfold. Here you can dream in the historic landscape.

Why are Heidschnucken out and about in the heath?

Heath has to be cared for and of course also has to look very inviting, because both tourists and Heidjer people are happy about the shimmering purple sight year after year when the heather blooms again. Luckily, there are a few hard-working helpers to look after the heather: the Heidschnucken.

Heidschnucken have been around for a very long time, for more than 5000 years. They come from the wild goat, the mouflon. There are white-horned and gray-horned Heidschnucks.
